Growing Instructions:
Warm season crop that requires full sun late, plant after the threat of frost has passed, but while night time temperatures are still cool. Usually is a May or early June planting for northern states, or an early April planting for southern states.
It is usually best to direct sow Quinoa in your beds where you plan for it to grow.
Seeds should be sown no more than one-quarter inch deep in rows one and a half- to two-feet (45-60 cm) apart, thinning out all but best seedlings after they sprout. Germination usually occurs within 3 to 4 days and the soil should be kept moist during that time. Once the plants have established themselves, they will be slightly drought tolerant.

Quinoa is ready to harvest when the leaves have fallen, leaving just the dried seed heads.
